      Hector A. Gonzalez InSession Film When divided into two features, Canijo explores, with ease, the complex dynamics each person involved in this narrative has with one another. And it is fascinating to see such ambitious work end up in the filmmaker’s favor. Rated: A- Jul 19, 2023 Full Review Zhuo-Ning Su Awards Daily With striking compositions and a hypnotically rich color palette, DP Leonor Teles has created images of lingering beauty. Feb 24, 2023 Full Review Lee Marshall Screen International A fascinating exercise in ‘narrative reverse-shot’ filmmaking.

Rated: 3.5/5 Feb 23, 2023 Full Review Read all reviews
